We deal with a planar differential system of the form \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} \, u' = h(t,v), \\ \, v' = - \lambda a(t) g(u), \end{cases} \end{equation*} where $h$ is $T$-periodic in the first variable and strictly increasing in the…

We solve several problems on frequently hypercyclic operators. Firstly, we characterize frequently hypercyclic weighted shifts on $\ell^p(\mathbb Z)$, $p\geq 1$. Our method uses properties of the difference set of a set with positive upper…

It is a classical result of Mahler that for any rational number $\alpha$ > 1 which is not an integer and any real 0 < c < 1, the set of positive integers n such that $\alpha$ n < c n is necessarily finite. Here for any real x, x denotes the…

We give an example of solutions of the connection problem associated with a certain system of linear $q$-difference equations recently introduced by Park. The result contains a connection formulas of the $q$-Lauricella hypergeometric…

We study higher order linear differential equation $y^{(k)}+A_1(z)y=0$ with $k\geq2$, where $A_1=A+h$, $A$ is a transcendental entire function of finite order with $\frac{1}{2}\leq \mu(A)<1$ and $h\neq0$ is an entire function with…

In this paper we obtain new quantitative forms of Hilbert's Irreducibility Theorem. In particular, we show that if $f(X, T_1, \ldots, T_s)$ is an irreducible polynomial with integer coefficients, having Galois group $G$ over the function…

An algebraic Riccati equation for linear operators is studied, which arises in systems theory. For the case that all involved operators are unbounded, the existence of infinitely many selfadjoint solutions is shown. To this end, invariant…

The aim of this paper is to treat the constant coefficients functional-differential equation $y'(x)=ay(qx)+by(x)$ with the help of the analytic theory of linear $q$-difference equations. When $ab\not=0$, the associated Cauchy problem with…

First, we reconsider the magnetic pseudodifferential calculus and show that for a large class of non-decaying symbols, their corresponding magnetic pseudodifferential operators can be represented, up to a global gauge transform, as…

We consider a general discrete Sobolev inner product involving the Hahn difference operator, so this includes the well--known difference operators $\mathscr{D}_{q}$ and $\Delta$ and, as a limit case, the derivative operator. The objective…

We develop a pseudo-differential approach to the N=2 supersymmetric unconstrained matrix (k|n,m)-Generalized Nonlinear Schroedinger hierarchies and prove consistency of the corresponding Lax-pair representation (nlin.SI/0201026).…

The aim of this paper is to exhibit a method for proving that certain analytic functions are not solutions of algebraic differential equations. The method is based on model-theoretic properties of differential fields and properties of…

A linear operator $U$ acting boundedly on an infinite-dimensional separable complex Hilbert space $H$ is universal if every linear bounded operator acting on $H$ is similar to a scalar multiple of a restriction of $U$ to one of its…

In this article, we show a new general linear independence criterion related to values of $G$-functions, including the linear independence of values at algebraic points of contiguous hypergeometric functions, which is not known before. Let…

We prove a short general theorem which immediately implies some classical results of Hasse, Guillera and Sondow, Paolo Amore, and also Alzer and Richards. At the end we obtain a new representation for the Euler constant gamma. The theorem…

We study the interplay between the differential Galois group and the Lie algebra of infinitesimal symmetries of systems of linear differential equations. We show that some symmetries can be seen as solutions of a hierarchy of linear…

This thesis is devoted to the study of hyperbolic differential operators on globally hyperbolic manifolds, linear gauge theories and their quantisation. In the first part, we treat the Cauchy problem for symmetric hyperbolic systems and…

There are considered differential substitutions of the form $v=P(x,u,u_{x})$ for which there exists a differential operator $H=\sum^{k}_{i=0} \alpha_{i} D^{i}_{x}$ such that the differential substitution maps the equation…

A linear different operator L is called weakly hypoelliptic if any local solution u of Lu=0 is smooth. We allow for systems, that is, the coefficients may be matrices, not necessarily of square size. This is a huge class of important…

We study generalized solutions of an evolutionary equation related to a densely defined skew-symmetric operator in a real Hilbert space. We establish existence of a contractive semigroup, which provides generalized solutions, and find…
